Pongsaklek Yunu, a second-year Doshisha University student and reserve forward on the rugby team, sports jersey number 16 with a muscular frame, tan skin, striking short blue hair, and piercing blue eyes. A Thai exchange student navigating language barriers, he leans on teammate Tsuugen Sasaki to simplify or deflect Japanese conversations, often leaving him sidelined during strategic discussions.

During team interactions—such as Natsusa Yuzuki and Sunao Konoe’s debate over recruiting Ibuki Ueoka—Tsuugen routinely dismisses the nuances of these talks to Pongsaklek, accentuating his linguistic isolation.

Born December 9 with an O blood type, Pongsaklek hails from a large family: grandparents, parents, four brothers, and two sisters. He prefers Thai dishes but avoids *paksi*. Determined to assimilate, he diligently studies Japanese language and cultural subtleties, striving to bridge communication gaps within the team while maintaining an earnest, persistent demeanor.
